Back when my Dad was alive (he died in 1974) on Fridays after work he would go get groceries, and inevitably he would get either Moon Pies or the 2 lb pack of store brand sandwich cookies (we had a big family), and they both were great for kids who didn't get anything sweet all the time. But sometimes he would bring in a package of Hydrox cookies, and you could definitely taste the difference between those and the store brand cookies. So good.

The Jingles cookies were only available around Christmas. They were anise flavored with red and green sugar sprinkles, and were shaped liked bells, stockings and stars. Maurice Lenell also had a variety of cookies, but the one I remember was the pinwheel cookie. Sadly, they are no longer available and that's the way the cookie crumbles.

Salerno butter cookies were the best! I think they were regional to the Chicago area. Also during the holidays their Christmas ‘Jingles’ were da bomb. Eventually they got bought out by Keebler and the local varieties disappeared. You can still find the butter cookies online but I hear they’re not the same…

I really miss Pogens. They were ginger cookies made into various shapes. They had a little legend displayed on the package that if you place the cookie in your palm and push your finger down in the center, you can make a wish come true if the cookie broke into 3 pieces. Of course, most of the time, it broke into 4 pieces, so I would use the largest shape, a leaf, to try to get my wish.

@jamescooley5744 Ай бұрын

One of the reason so many cookie varieties have gone away is because of (like in other areas) the consolidation of the food industry. Keebler bought Sunshine and Mother's (which bought some of the Burry's brands). Kellogg bought Keebler and later sold the Keebler cookie business to Ferrero (maker of Nutella and Rocher candies). Campbell Soup owns Pepperidge Farm and bought Archway, Lance and Snyder's. Nabisco bought several brands including Stella D'Oro and was combined into Mondelez who also owns Cadbury (except in the USA where the brand is licensed to Hershey)

Keebler's Opera Cremes. Chocolate and Vanilla wafers with 4 or 6 holes in the top, sandwiched with a lemony cream frosting. Gone forever. When Oreo introduced their Lemon line, I managed to make my own version - twist a chocolate Oreo apart, scrape off the white cream, open a lemon Oreo, and put a chocolate wafer on top. No creme came out the little holes, and the lemon wafer is a bit more tart than the Opera Creme, but in a pinch they calmed down the kid in me. And don't get me started on the Dolly Madison raspberry jelly roll cakes of the 1960s-1980s...
